Gallowgate Toon Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 In the 90s, there were Spanish, English, Italian, German, Dutch, French and Serbian winners of the CL. The last decade, we've had only English, Italian, German and Spanish sides win it. 8 occasions that's been between Spain and England There's a lot less diversity and I'd agree the football is generally much more tedious across the board.

mrmojorisin75 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Think for example of Real Madrid. If we still went with pre-Bosman rules, they'd have to pick 3 out of: Ronaldo Benzema Bale Modric Varane Rodríguez Kroos Navas Kovacic Danilo Casemiro (Marcelo has a Spanish passport IIRC) Now besides the fact they'd be weakened themselves, all the players they'd be giving up would be at smaller teams, a lot of them in their nation's leagues, strengthening them. That's how football was before the Bosman ruling. This is a very good point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 On the other hand though, you get instances where in Scotland they had to have a certain number of Scottish players a few seasons back. I remember a Rangers manager Walter Smith (I think), at the time, saying he had kids from the Academy on the bench strutting around the place like they'd made it, because they were in the matchday squad when really they were nowhere near ready/good enough yet.
